  • Cultural Activism T HAMYRIS
    Cultural Activism T HAMYRIS This volume addresses contemporary activist practices that aim to interrupt and reorient Cultural Activism politics as well as culture. The specific tactics analyzed here are diverse, ranging from culture jamming, sousveillance, media hoaxing, adbusting, subvertising, street art, to I hacktivism, billboard liberation, and urban guerilla, to name but a few. Though indebted NTERSECTING to the artistic and political movements of the past, this form of activism brings a novel dimension to public protest with its insistence on humor, playfulness, and confusion. This book attempts to grasp both the old and new aspects of contemporary activist practices, as well as their common characteristics and internal varieties. It attempts to open up space for the acknowledgement of the ways in which contemporary capitalism affects all Practices, Dilemmas, and Possibilities Editors Begüm Özden Firat our lives, and for the reflection on possible modes of struggling with it. It focuses on the Aylin Kuryel possibilities that different activist tactics enable, the ways in which those may be innovative or destructive, as well as on their complications and dilemmas. N o The encounter between the insights of political, social and critical theory on the one 21 hand and activist visions and struggles on the other is urgent and appealing. The essays collected here all explore such a confrontational collaboration, testing its limits and productiveness, in theory as well as in practice. In a mutually beneficial relationship, theoretical concepts are rethought through activist practices, while those activist practices are developed with the help of the insights of critical theory. This volume brings scholars and activists together in the hope of establishing a productive dialogue between the Activism Cultural theorizations of the intricacies of our times and the subversive practices that deal with them.

    The London School of Economics and Political Science ‘I Predict a Riot’ – Mediation and Political Contention: Dissent!’s media practices at the 2005 Gleneagles G8 Summit Patrick M. McCurdy A thesis submitted to the Department of Media and Communications of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, March 2009. 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the prior written consent of the author. I warrant that this authorization does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. 2 Abstract International meetings such as the G8 Summit have evolved from the sequestered gatherings of the economic elite to full-scale political media events. Using the 2005 Gleneagles G8 Summit as a case study, and focusing on one specific ‘autonomous’ activist network – Dissent! – this thesis investigates how the process of mediation is articulated in activists’ practices in preparing and enacting acts of contention. Dominant approaches to such events in the field of media and communications are often text-centred, focussing on the media’s framing of protest, overlooking the actions against and interactions with the media at such sites.

  • 'We Are Heartbroken and Furious!' Engaging with Violence in the (Anti-)Globalisation Movement(S)
    “‘We are heartbroken and furious!’ Engaging with violence in the (anti-)globalisation movement(s)” Sian Sullivan CSGR Working Paper No. 123/03 January 2004 Centre for the Study of Globalisation and Regionalisation (CSGR), University of Warwick, Coventry, CV4 7AL, United Kingdom. URL: http://www.csgr.org 1 ‘We are heartbroken and furious!’ Engaging with violence in the (anti-)globalisation movement(s) Sian Sullivan CSGR, University of Warwick CSGR Working Paper No 123/03 January 2004 Abstract This piece is intended as an exploratory comment on the militancy emerging in (anti-)globalisation political practice and in the policing of such practice, rather than as a definitive analysis. As someone who attempts to pursue a tradition of the ‘organic intellectual’ – engaging in the practice of activism as well as the theorising of activist practice – the paper has emerged from my own process of sense-making regarding violence in the ‘(anti- )globalisation movement(s)’. It flows from experience of irruptive situations, my perceptions of the contextual causes of violence in these situations, and my thinking around the subversive and transformative potential, or otherwise, of violence in engendering radical post-capitalist social relations. I take as a starting point the recent protests against the EU summit meeting in Thessaloniki, June 2003, which culminated in substantial violence against property and towards police by antiauthoritarian protesters, and was met by the police with violent attack and the brutalisation of those arrested. I do not assume a moral standpoint regarding the value or otherwise of violence to ‘the movements’. Instead I try to consider why violence is increasing as a bio-political tactic in these contexts, ‘upfronting’ both the normalisation of psychological and physical violence in the everyday circumstances of late-capitalism, and the depression and anger this engenders.

We would like to make clear that book you are holding in your hands is a map and not a history of sound art, though we had set out in search of a history. Our aim: a broad survey of contemporary sonic arts practices with focus on the role of recording technology, the relation- ship of sonic arts to traditional artistic disciplines, and the political ramifications of individual artist’s processes.

    DeLaurenti 1 Activist Sound: Field Recording, Phonography, and Soundscapes of Protest Christopher DeLaurenti Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Goldsmiths, University of London 2020 DeLaurenti 2 Declaration of authorship I, Christopher DeLaurenti, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own, except when indicated and attributed otherwise. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. July 16, 2020 DeLaurenti 3 Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr. John Levack Drever and Dr. Iris Garrelfs for their generous supervision and incisive wisdom on all things sonic and scholarly. I am thankful for funding from The College of William & Mary. The Dean’s Office provided valuable supplementary funding for the completion of this dissertation. The Department of Music’s Professional Development Fund in tandem with the Reves Center’s Faculty International Conference Travel Grant funded several aspects of my research. I thank Logan Chappell who guided me through the funding process and made invaluable suggestions. I am lucky to have wise, supportive colleagues and insightful students in the Department of Music. Many texts in this thesis were presented at conferences, invited lectures, and artist residencies during the previous decade. I’m grateful to the respective organizers of those events, but also to fellow scholars, artists, and students who offered helpful observations and asked probing questions. The sources of the texts––a book chapter, journal articles, conference papers, invited lectures, artist talks, etc.––are inventoried in the Colophon. Regarding the sound work discussed in this research, the version of N30: Live at the WTO Protest November 30, 19991 (2008) was made possible by Oliver Ressler, who invited me to reimagine N30 for a 2008 Taipei Biennial showcase, “A World Where Many Worlds Fit,” held at the Taipei Museum of Fine Arts from September 13, 2008 to January 4, 2009.
